Are the people at google loosing the plot? The stupid highlight fields ruins a professional looking design.

I am surpised knowone has sued them over this, technically this could be viewed as damaging other peoples reputations.

If i did not know it was the google tool bar and went to a site and saw ramdom form fields in bright yellow, i would consider them not professional and it might make the difference between doing business with them and not doing business.

Yeah that's true. The ironic part of all this is I used google to find the article to tell me google was the cause of your woes!
I agree though. It's still good for accessibility but it should be turned off by default.

BTW You can get around it another way too. Just don't use the field names that it's looking for.

I don't really care that it does it, I'm just glad I found this thread because it was making us crazy trying to figure out why the heck it was doing it on my machine but not his when we were both working on this chunk of code and testing back and forth........
